Pastel Strands

Pastel tones and strands can be used easily and delicately to light your life up! Where previously romantic and exotic strands were limited to the ramps at fashion shows of elite brands, these are now sported by common women for the love of fashion and colors. Looking trendy and chic, this hair style and colors allow you to experiment, create a personal fashion statement and reflect your personality through your looks.

Pastel strands are inviting for a number of reasons. Firstly, they give the wearer the option of choosing from a wide range of shades available. Each client can pick a shade most suitable with her needs, as well as face structure and personality. Secondly, these shades can be pigmented permanently, or temporarily, giving the wearer the opportunity to fit in a role or character for a short while, or sport the look for a longer term. Pastel strands look good on anyone, giving women who are not so young a platform to experiment and pull off their fashion sense and desire. Pastel works on everyone regardless of age, states the celebrated actress Helen Mirren, and we can agree more!

The soft qualities of the pastel make them complimentary and beautiful, and exude radiance off the wearer. The overall effect is rejuvenating and refreshing, for the wearer as well as the observer. Like Mirren, a number of celebrities are seen o be supporting pastel this summer, which is the new cool look in the sweltering heat. Nicole Richie and Ireland Baldwin have been seen to opt for violet hues, while Sienna Miller went for a rose-gold shade. Similarly, Demi Lovato went for a bolder bubble-gum pink to compliment her personality as well as her cheek bones and high spirits.

Pastel colors are the answer to break the monotony this season. A word of caution only hints that they should be done from a renowned professional who knows the tricks of the business, or the results could be wrecking. Choose a color that lights you up and sport a change this summer – happy pastel-ing!
